You noiced, huh? To be honest, I have been a little reluctant to get too excited about ETF Talk in front of our TSP Talk premium members since Fred, Ebb, and Rev are giving free trading signals here. Even though the ETF trading is different and more active than the TSP signals, I am worried that they might think we are giving away here, what they are paying for there, even though the systems are totally diffrent. So, it has been a sticky situation, but I have been slowly leaking the info on the board to those who I see might be trading ETF's already. Does that make sense?

So Tom, I've been so excited about this site that I've been practically using the Goodyear blimp to advertise on the TSP Talk site. Do the rest of us need to be more selective too?

If so, no problem. I want to do this the way you want to do it!

You're fine. The way you and show-me have been doing it has been great. I just didn't want to put it in my commentary or on the home page. The folks on the TSP Talk message board reading our daily posts are more likely to be ETF'ers.

LOL - You got it... This site is for those already hooked. I will be promoting this site more toward traders rather than those just saving for retirement, although they could be one in the same. It is a tougher sell for sure, since there are so many trading sites out there, so I really do appreciate the referrals.

ETF's are a growing phenomenon and as TSP Talk was a new idea 5 years ago and we may have created a new breed of TSP participants (smart ones), I suspect ETF's will be in almost everyone's portfolio within a few years.

I am probably guilty of trying to catch lightening in a bottle for a second time, but it's what I love to do. And I'm told... If you build it, they will come.
